Kasich: I Don’t Support P. Parenthood But I Support ‘a Robust Funding of Women’s Health

BURNETT: "Yes. So, you talk about the Deep South and how you think you can win Mississippi. You have the governor of Alabama endorsing you. You know, one thing that might help you in that region and in South Carolina of course specifically is your tough stance against abortion. Planned Parenthood as we all know is a lightning rod in this election. There’s a bill on your desk right now to cut all the funds to that group in Ohio. I know you have vowed you’re going to sign it. When are you actually going to get up there to sign it?"
KASICH: "I’ll be signing it probably this weekend, and — but I want to make it clear to everybody. While we don’t support Planned Parenthood, we do support a robust funding of women’s health. We just can’t operate through that organization anymore. They’ve lost credibility. And so, but women’s health is really critical. And we’re going to make sure that we have the places where women can go to get the treatment that they need the same way that we’ve been working aggressively to try to overcome the problems we’ve had with infant mortality. And, you know, we believe in things like the early childhood education which is really important. So, look, at the end of the day, I’m going to sign that bill, but we’ll make sure that women have a place to go."
